' This invention appertains to new and useful improvements in building constructions, and more particularly to a novel window construction. c r I 5 I The principal object of this invention is to provide a composite window construction 1n- .volving sashes for general use, a knock-down window screen and knock-down storm window or shutter.

is to provide a window construction where-in disappearing screens and storm units are provided.

Still anotherimportant object of the 1nvention is to provide a composite window construction wherein the difierent mobile units can be regulated in an easy and convenient manner. p

These and other important'objects andadvantagesof the invention will become appar- V enttothe reader of the following specification and claims. I i i In the drawings 2,- J Figure 1 represents a vertical sectional view through the windowyc'onstruction.

F 1g. 20 represents a perspective view of Referring to the drawings wherein like numerals designate like parts,'1t can be seen in 1 4, that numeral 5 generally refers to a window construction which includes the upper compartment 6' for the novel storm unit, and the lower compartment 7 for the novel screen unit.

This window construction also includes the vertically extending side compartments 88 to accommodate the counter=balancing weights of the sashes 9 and 1'0,-'as well as the sections of the storm and screen units.

As is shown 'in' Fig. 5, the construction of one side compartment, and its associated slides and weights is represented, audit is to be understood that the other side compartment with its adjunct is substantially iden-' tical in construction.

till referring to Fig. 5, it can'be seen that the side compartment has a shell generally referred to by numeral 11 installed therein. The shell 11 is pressed or stamped to form inwardly projecting vertically extending guide ribs 12 and 13, and secured to the inner side of this shellll are h e guide ribs i V in nesting the L endliee the blocks 14 and 15. The inner side wall of the shell 11 is indentured to provide the slideways 16, 17, 18 and 19, each of which is provided with an inwardly projecting guide rib at 20. 6 As is clearly shown in Fig. 5, sliders 21 are interlocked in the slideways 16 and 17 so as to be 'alidable dong the same, and detachably connected to the sliders are the window sashes 9 and 10 hereinbefore referred to.

As is clearl shown, each of'these sashes is made up a hollow frame 22 provided with; an inwardly disposed shoulder 23 against which the pane can be disposed. The frameis provided with an opening through 16 whieg the keys 24 can be disposed for secure pane in place prior to the placement 0;? e eat or putty 25.

e remal two slideways 18 and 1 9, is slidably isposed the links 26 conblocks. These links and biocks are erngtoyed not only with the storm win- 30w unit generally referred to by numeral 258')! also with the screen unit generally b numeral 29. The window ,5 panes of the Min unit sections are secured totheir section frames in the same manner as l, the panes in the window sashes 9 and 10. Ewe/er, the screen in each of the screen secured as at in any suitable 01. to its corresponding section frame. & isshown in Fig. 18, the side edges of V are slotted so as to receive the l khlrs which are flanged as at 33 vent .ilisplacement from the slots.

(See Fig. 7). ended screws '36 extend througlrthe slots eofliletions ween the ends of the links Quiche corresponding blocks 32. In the' slotsof the screen sections are the slide blocks 37 and 38, located between coinfgreinentary blocks 3232, the upper block being provided with an outwardly ex- 39 as shown in Fig. 18.

* t n e tim ,' i unit is constructed in a similar that the upper slide block m. qt

. ti e: slide block 38' is provided with the e 39'.

permitting the removal of the sash sections oi the storm unit, as well asthe sections of the screen unit and the sashes 9 an 10 from their correspondi slides, means such as is shown in i ig. 17 is employed. This latch means includes a pair itchhars 41 for each sash section, each latch bars being provided with an obliquely disposed head 42 for disposition thrc registering openings in the corre- 65 s un section frames and slides 21. A

of the sereen unit sections ride.

A spring 45 is provided on each latch bar for normally maintaining the same in a projected position connecting the corresponding section with its slide 21. Suitable guide means can be provided forthe latch bars 41.

In the upper storm unit compartment 6 are the up er tracks 46 upon which the rollers 40 oft storm unit sections ride. The lower rollers 40 ride upon the lower inclined tracks 47. In the lower screen compartments 7 are the upper track uides, each of which is made up of a pair of closely spaced rails 48 between. which the upper roliers 40 The lower rollers 40 of the screen unit sections ride under the lower track 49, located adjacent the lower portion of the compartment 7. In each of the compartments 6 and 7 is a thrower arm 50 of substantially L'-shape and rockably supported at its heel portion, as at 51. The elongated portion of the arm is bulged at its inner side, and which point is urged against the corresponding unit section.

Aithough only one arm is represented in each compartment in Fig. 1, it is to be understood that two of such arms are to be provided in each compartment, and obvionsly as each section is moved into its compartment and bears against the foot portion of the arm 51, the elongated portion will throw against'the' section to shift the same inwardly and onto the guide rails. v

A s ring is associated"with each of the arms 1 for maintaining the same normally removed from the sections. Suitable handle meansp'an provided o'nthe first section of bdth o the storm and screen units so that the same can be easily extracted from their corresponding compartments.

, is shown in Fig. 4, slidable between the ribs Hand 13, and the ribs 20-26 are the I each of which is provided with a channel bar 53 secured to each end thereof for receiving the aforementioned rib. In

this manner, the weights are vertically slid-" able and are connected over the pulleys 54 by means of the cables 55 to their corresponding sections 9 and 10. V

The counter-balancing means for the sections of the screen unit, is di'fierent from that of the general sashes 9 and 10 and is clearly represented in the diagrammatic view in Fig. 2. Asis clearly shown in Fig. 2, each side compartment 8 is provided with a verticallyw extendin rib 56 divided into separate sections ecreasing downward! in width so as to provide outstanding oulders 57.

Slidable between these ribs 56 and the corresponding ribs 20 is the train of weights
